Dizziness: It s always better to determine the origin of the problem, neurologists often do the work up of this problem. Antihistaminic agents (oral or patches) have been used for cases in which other causes (sometimes more serious) were excluded.

Odd story: I really can't put your story into any medical process. I'm going to suggest you discuss this with your local health care provider. I wouldn't drive if you feel dizzy . I recommend you keep yourself well hydrated. Good luck.

False information: Your brain misinterprets conflicting information from your eyes and inner ear.  The result is dizziness and nausea.

how long will headaches and dizzyness last after a car crash?

Varies: Headaches after a car crash may last long if you had a severe whiplash injury. It also varies with individual the duration and the intensity of pain.

Question 6

why i feel dizzy when im hearing music with my headphones and when im sitting in a car?

Accepted Answer

That's unclear: I think that's unclear. If that's the only time you feel dizzy then it's probably not anything serious. You may want to consider not wearing headphones while driving. It can make it harder to hear things going on around you and that's a safety issue.

Question 7

Accepted Answer

Many: Many things can cause this such as viruses, dehydration, thyroid disorders.  See your doctor for an evaluation.

Seek medical consult: What you describe may (or may not) be serious. You should seek medical consultation right away, so that a doctor can get more information, &amp; advise you appropriately. HealthTap consultations are available; just start over &amp; click on Talk-to-Dr.  You can choose video or text, &amp; you can upload pictures, or documents such as test results.

Question 9

why do i always get nauseous/dizzy in car rides..? could this be just anxiety or early signs of schizophenia?

Accepted Answer

Possibly anxious: I think anxiety could predispose to the easier experience of nausea during car trips.  In theory, i suppose someone with schizophrenia who was particularly paranoid or anxious would also get sick a little easier during car rides although I am not aware of that being a recognized indication of a predisposition towards developing a thought disorder like schizophrenia.

Question 10

i'm lately facing dizziness and when i drive my eyes can't focus much i feel that cars are moving and everything but not 100 % focus. what's that?

Accepted Answer

Need eye exam: you need to see an ophthalmologist ASAP.   You may have nystagmus?  You need a full neurological and eye exam.  It could be 2/2 medication, infection, inflammation or other cause
